We prove for abelian varieties a global form of Denef and Loeser's motivic monodromy conjecture, in arbitrary characteristic. More precisely, we prove that for every tamely ramified abelian variety $A$ over a complete discretely valued…

The main objects of study in this paper are the poles of several local zeta functions: the Igusa, topological and motivic zeta function associated to a polynomial or (germ of) holomorphic function in n variables. We are interested in poles…

The motivic zeta function of a smooth and proper $\mathbb{C}((t))$-variety $X$ with trivial canonical bundle is a rational function with coefficients in an appropriate Grothendieck ring of complex varieties, which measures how $X$…

This is a survey on motivic zeta functions associated to abelian varieties and Calabi-Yau varieties over a discretely valued field. We explain how they are related to Denef and Loeser's motivic zeta function associated to a complex…

This article investigates the monodromy conjecture for a space monomial curve that appears as the special fiber of an equisingular family of curves with a plane branch as generic fiber. Roughly speaking, the monodromy conjecture states that…

We give a proof the monodromy conjecture relating the poles of motivic zeta functions with roots of b-functions for isolated quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces, and more generally for semi-quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces. We also give a strange…

The monodromy conjecture states that every pole of the topological (or related) zeta function induces an eigenvalue of monodromy. This conjecture has already been studied a lot; however, in full generality it is proven only for zeta…

We prove the local motivic monodromy conjecture for singularities that are nondegenerate with respect to a simplicial Newton polyhedron. It follows that all poles of the local topological zeta functions of such singularities correspond to…

For any polynomial f with complex coefficients we find a remarkable subset of poles of the motivic zeta function. It is combinatorially determined by any log resolution and it admits an intrinsic interpretation in terms of contact loci of…

Motivic and topological zeta functions are singularity invariants, mainly associated to a function $f$ and a top differential form $\omega$ on a smooth variety. When $\omega$ is the standard form $dx_1\wedge \dots \wedge dx_n$ on affine…

We study a set of topological roots of the local Bernstein-Sato polynomial of arbitrary plane curve singularities. These roots are characterized in terms of certain divisorial valuations and the numerical data of the minimal log resolution.…

Associated to an abelian variety over a number field are several interesting and related groups: the motivic Galois group, the Mumford-Tate group, $\ell$-adic monodromy groups, and the Sato-Tate group. Assuming the Mumford-Tate conjecture,…

The monodromy conjecture is a mysterious open problem in singularity theory. Its original version relates arithmetic and topological/geometric properties of a multivariate polynomial $f$ over the integers, more precisely, poles of the…

This paper presents a proof of the monodromy conjecture for determinantal varieties. Our strategy centers on an in-depth analysis of monodromy zeta functions, leveraging a generalized A'Campo formula, an examination of multiple contact…

We prove formulas for the number of Jordan blocks of the maximal size for local monodromies of one-parameter degenerations of complex algebraic varieties where the bound of the size comes from the monodromy theorem. In case the general…

The Monodromy Conjecture asserts that if c is a pole of the local topological zeta function of a hypersurface, then exp(2\pi i c) is an eigenvalue of the monodromy on the cohomology of the Milnor fiber. A stronger version of the conjecture…

We solve a motivic version of the Adams conjecture with the exponential characteristic of the base field inverted. In the way of the proof we obtain a motivic version of mod k Dold theorem and give a motivic version of Brown's trick…

We prove that the standard conjecture of Hodge type holds for powers of abelian threefolds. Along the way, we also prove the conjecture for powers of simple abelian variety of prime dimension over finite fields, and in other related cases…

We prove a 1999 conjecture of Veys, which says that the opposite of the log canonical threshold is the only possible pole of maximal order of Denef and Loeser's motivic zeta function associated with a germ of a regular function on a smooth…

These notes give a basic introduction to the theory of $p$-adic and motivic zeta functions, motivic integration, and the monodromy conjecture.
